Close Similarities Of Metalloids and Non-metals:
Metalloids:
Low shear strength (Brittleness)
Positive or negative oxidation numbers
Can form anions in water, mostly oxyanions
Non metals:
Low shear strength (Brittleness) when solid
Positive or negative oxidation numbers
Tend to form anions in water
Remote Similarities of metalloids and non-metals:
Metalloids:
Intermediate electronegativity
Intermediate melting and boiling points
Intermediate to good electrical conductivity
mostly Intermediate to high (Si) thermal conductivity
Some low densities (exceptional), mostly high
Can form acidic oxides
Non metals:
High electronegativity
Low melting and boiling points
Poor to Intermediate electrical conductivity
Nearly negligible to high thermal conductivity
Low densities
A tendency to form acidic oxides
Metalloids are 7 and other nonmetals are 17.
Metalloids share properties of both metals and nonmetals. They can conduct electricity to some extent, like metals, but not as efficiently. They are also semi-malleable and semi-ductile, similar to metals, but also have characteristics of nonmetals such as being brittle and not as lustrous.
In the periodic table, metals are found on the left side, nonmetals on the right side, and metalloids in between. Metals tend to be good conductors of electricity and heat, while nonmetals are poor conductors. Metalloids have properties of both metals and nonmetals. Examples of metals include iron and copper, nonmetals include nitrogen and oxygen, and metalloids include silicon and arsenic.
Nonmetals are located on the right side of the periodic table, in groups 14-18. Metalloids are located along the staircase line that separates metals from nonmetals, meaning they have properties of both metals and nonmetals.
Metals are located on the left side of the periodic table, nonmetals are on the right side, and metalloids are found along the zigzag line that separates metals and nonmetals. Metals tend to lose electrons, nonmetals tend to gain electrons, and metalloids have properties that are intermediate between metals and nonmetals.
because metalloids usually have properties that are similar to metals and nonmetals
Metalloids are 7 and other nonmetals are 17.
Those elements are called metalloids. They have properties that are intermediate between metals and nonmetals.
The nonmetals.

metalloids
The three classes of elements are metals, nonmetals, and metalloids. Metals are typically shiny, solid at room temperature, and good conductors of heat and electricity. Nonmetals are usually dull in appearance, brittle, and poor conductors of heat and electricity. Metalloids have properties that are intermediate between metals and nonmetals.
